A Discrete Choice Experiment on Women’s Preferences for Water Immersion During Labor and Birth: Identification, Refinement and Selection of Attributes and Levels
(2020)Abstract : Objectives: To identify attributes (i.e., characteristics describing a scenario) and levels (i.e., each characteristic may be defined by a di erent level) that would be included in a discrete choice experiment ... -
A multilevel intervention to increase physical activity and improve healthy eating and physical literacy among young children (ages 3-5) attending early childcare centres: the Healthy Start-Départ Santé cluster randomised controlled trial study protocol
(2016)Abstract: Background: Childhood obesity is a growing concern for public health. Given a majority of children in many countries spend approximately 30 h per week in early childcare centers, this environment represents a ... -
A novel measure of physiological condition based on multivariate distance predicts maximal thermogenic capacity and inflammation in a migratory shorebird
Other titre : A novel integrative method for measuring body condition in ecological studies based on physiological dysregulation(2014)Abstract: The body condition of free-ranging animals affects their ability to fulfil their vital needs, their response to stress, their decisions, and ultimately their fitness, with important evolutionary consequences. It ... -
A novel statistical approach shows evidence for multi-system physiological dysregulation during aging
Other titre : A novel measurement approach and evidence for multi-system physiological dysregulation during aging(2013)Abstract: Previous studies have identified many biomarkers that are associated with aging and related outcomes, but the relevance of these markers for underlying processes and their relationship to hypothesized systemic ... -
A tale of two models: changes in psychological need satisfaction and physical activity over 3 years
Other titre : Changes in psychological need satisfaction(2016)Abstract: Objective: (a) Examine longitudinal measurement invariance of scores from psychological need satisfaction (PNS) scales and (b) examine if changes in PNS were associated with change in moderate-to-vigorous physical ... -
Absence of effect of nasal continuous positive-airway pressure on the esophageal phase of nutritive swallowing in newborn lambs
(2013)Objectives: It is presently recommended that oral feeding be started in premature infants as soon as possible, often at an age at which nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) is still required for ventilatory ... -
Absence of inspiratory laryngeal constrictor muscle activity during nasal neurally adjusted ventilatory assist in newborn lambs
(2012)It has been demonstrated that a progressive increase in nasal pressure support ventilation (nPSV) leads to an active inspiratory glottal closure in non-sedated newborn lambs, which limits lung ventilation (24, 33). Unlike ... -
Absorption and metabolism of conjugated α-linolenic acid given as free fatty acids or triacylglycerols in rats
(2006)Background: Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a group of polyunsaturated fatty acids which have been extensively studied in the past two decades. However, conjugated octadecatrienoic acid such as cis-9,trans-11,cis-15 ... -
Ageing and apoE change DHA homeostasis: relevance to age-related cognitive decline
(2014)Epidemiological studies fairly convincingly suggest that higher intakes of fatty fish and n-3 fatty acids are associated with reduced risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). DHA in plasma is normally positively associated with ... -
Aging across the tree of life: the importance of a comparative perspective for the use of animal models in aging
(2017)Abstract: Use of model organisms in aging research is problematic because our ability to extrapolate across the tree of life is not clear. On one hand, there are conserved pathways that regulate lifespan in organisms ... -
Aging, cognitive decline, apolipoprotein E and docosahexaenoic acid metabolism
(2018)Au Canada, 17 millions d’adultes âgés entre 30–64 ans pourraient bénéficier d’une intervention en prévention pour diminuer leur risque de développer la maladie d’Alzheimer (MA). L’un des groupes les plus à risque de ... -
Altered autonomic nervous system reactivity to pain in trigeminal neuralgia
(2015)BACKGROUND: In the last two decades, there has been increasing evidence to suggest that trigeminal neuralgia (TN) may be linked to a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The aim of the present study was to ... -
Anxiety, mood disorders and injection risk behaviors among cocaine users : results from the COSMO study
(2015)Abstract : BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Despite being common among cocaine users, mental health problems and their relationship with HIV and hepatitis C high risk injection behaviors are poorly documented. This study was ... -
Apolipoprotein E isoforms disrupt long-chain fatty acid distribution in the plasma, the liver and the adipose tissue of mice
(2014)Evidences suggest that omega-3 fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) metabolism is imbalanced in apolipoprotein E epsilon 4 isoform carriers (APOE4). This study aimed to investigate APOE genotype-dependant modulation of FA profiles, protein ... -
Approche centrée sur la famille: perception par la clientèle et le personnel de deux établissements de réadaptation en déficience physique du Québec
(2005)De nombreuses définitions de l’approche centrée sur la famille (ACF) ont été proposées. Elles ont toutes comme point commun un ensemble de croyances, d’attitudes et de pratiques centrées sur la famille qui favorisent ... -
Are poker players all the same? : latent class analysis
(2015)Poker is the gambling game that is currently gaining the most in popularity. However, there is little information on poker players' characteristics and risk factors. Furthermore, the first studies described poker players, ... -
Assessment of oxidative metabolism
(2013)Oxidative metabolism is one of the central physiological processes that regulate multiple functions in a cell including cell death and survival, proliferation, gene transcription, and protein modification. There are ... -
Association between childcare educators’ practices and preschoolers’ physical activity and dietary intake: a cross-sectional analysis
(2017)Abstract: Introduction Childcare educators may be role models for healthy eating and physical activity (PA) behaviours among young children. This study aimed to identify which childcare educators’ practices are associated ... -
Association between floods and acute cardiovascular diseases: a population-based cohort study using a geographic information system approach
(2016)Abstract: Background: Floods represent a serious threat to human health beyond the immediate risk of drowning. There is few data on the potential link between floods and direct consequences on health such as on cardiovascular ... -
Association between physical activity motives and type of physical activity in children
(2017)Abstract: Objectives: Motives for participating in a specific type of physical activity (PA) may differ across PA type in youth. We studied the relationship between PA motives and type of PA engaged in by youth. Design: ...
